Hello all!
I have a forum that explains the story of our sweet rescue chicken and this will include her new flock of friends we recently adopted.The link is here: Mabel's Story
The exciting news is that we got our very first egg today!
We adopted 3 one-year-old chickens from a local suburban farmer (we are urban farmers, in the city of Cleveland, OH).
Our hens & their temporary names (may change due to personality traits) :
Black Ameraucana - Darla (she is LOUD and mouthy)
Salmon Faverolle - Tiny/Peso (she is molting and has a tiny butt)
Barred Rock - Fritter/Goose (although I don't think either are fitting...)
Easter Egger - Mabel (stray/rescue chicken - this name is permanent!)
And here is Darla's blue egg! Our very first egg as chicken owners! We are very excited and proud of Darla. She made sure to scream to let us and the other chickens know that it was egg laying time. (The brown egg was a decoy egg to help them identify where the nesting box was).
Really happy to be able to care for and love these chickens as pets, family, and egg producers!
Sincerely,
Ellen, Jim, & Mabel's House of Hens
